Question
A man invested a certain amount of sum at 12.5% per
annum simple interest and earned an interest of Rs.2700 after 3 years. If the same amount is invested at 10% per annum compound interest, compounded annually for two years, then find the interest.Solution
Let the certain sum of money be Rs.P. So, P x 0.125 x 3 = 2700 => P = Rs.7200 Desired interest = [(1.1)2 – 1] x 7200 = Rs.1512
